In the Gray

I’m actually speechless. I’ve read my fair share of dark romance and there is not much that throws me off. This book managed to make me wholeheartedly e say: what the actual fuck. Out loud. And only a few manage that. Chapeau! This was toxic as hell. Throughly fucked up in many aspects. And I had the time of my live with it. If you want an obsessed and possessive mmc, that knows no boundaries and does whatever he wants and a relationship that’s toxic, but making you slightly obsess over the book then read this one right here. It’s spicy the way you need some holy water afterwards. I devoured this book and was physically unable to put it down. It’s captivating and exciting and the best kind of toxic. 4-5 star rating in so far. My only problem was the throughly over the top fucked up-ness that was everything after the 75% mark. I would have preferred everything from that to be different. This book managed to find the one thing that truly makes me uncomfortable. Did not see that coming. I would have preferred to just not have this entire thing in the book? The plottwist would have still worked just as fine. And I would be slightly disturbed by Rowdy. Some dramas and plottwist where not necessary in my opinion but maybe you will enjoy this particular wtf-moment. Who am I to tell you, ok what level of weirdness your „huh“ and „what am I reading here“-radar should be activated. I was about to recommend this to all my fans of darkish romances, but after that twist I recommend it to only the well-verses dark romance lovers out there. You get some… treats. And those won’t be of everyone’s taste. there’s a spoiler with details about what goes on in the last 25% of the book. If you want to go in unknown skip till I marked it safe to read :) *SPOILER for certain triggers/plottwist that could make you uncomfortable* this book, out of the blue and totally unnecessarily, throws a possible incest twist upon us readers. And to make matters worse: with the unconfirmed fact hanging over their head… they proceed to continue their physical relationship on several occasions. To be fair here and the only thing redeeming this book for me: they we’re fairly certain it’s not true. Did they have proof it’s false? no. But hey, the mmc was SURE she can’t be his daughter. He would have FELT it. He is convinced he can’t be that fucked up, that he would have sex with his own daughter. Therefore he decides to have sex with his maybe-daughter. Because she can’t be his right? Yes, the situation hadn’t been confirmed yet so it was still a big unknown. BUT JUST THE POSSIBILITY SHOULD BE LIKE COLD BUCKET BRO. Not for our man Rowdy tho. And Atlas, our sweet and till then actually highly enjoyable FMC, decides to just fuck it. And therefore fucks it. It being her possibly or maybe not father. Oh she also gets jealous over him fucking some other girl, in a random and totally out of character threesome (he initiated it? He was ready to kill everyone that just looked at her before that. But finding out you might have been fucking your daughter over more that 6 month does stuff to your brain.) As I was saying: Atlas gets jealyyy. Therefore the only reasonable thing to do: she pisses on him. With other girl (who is her best friend) still in the room. Fun times huh? *SPOILER OVER. SAFE TO READ FROM HERE ON* That being said: the book was great in general. Toxic and twisted and it was all fun and entertainment and slight obsession on my side till the 75% mark. So in favor of that and because it’s a dark romance - we don’t have morals here - I’m giving it a 3.5. But this may not be for everyone!! 3.5
